The most useful medication always has the worst side effects...🤦‍♂️😩

A meme that features two images from a comedy sketch with text overlay that humorously illustrates a self-contradictory situation. The top image has text that says “MAINTAINING SLEEP SCHEDULE” with the character looking confident while he pretends to shoot himself in the head with a finger gun, representing an attempt to adhere to a regular sleep pattern. The bottom image captions the same character looking confused and distressed with the text “TAKING TWO ADDERALL JUST TO BE ABLE REPLY TO TWO EMAILS,” implying that this action is counterproductive to his sleep schedule. The final statement at the bottom reads “WHY DO I HAVE INSOMNIA,” poking fun at the character’s own actions that are causing his sleeplessness.

    @BeAware I've used lower dose Ritalin to get to sleep because it slowed my mind down enough to let me finally fall asleep.

    I wasn't particularly kind in my response. They've burned quite a few bridges.

    @SJohnRoss First I'd heard about a new game coming out. Glad I kept my 3e books.

    Got called a fascist by a Biden supporter for..... saying I support Biden?

    Lesson of the day: Sometimes you just need to take a deep breath, put your phone down, and remind yourself that you simply cannot win on social media.

    Me: That is exactly the problem I am trying to point out here though. It has become impossible to make the smallest criticism about one party without people instantly accusing you of supporting the opposing party. I support Biden, I am going to vote with Biden, and I think it is very problematic when people become afraid to criticize parts of a thing that they generally support. Someone replying to my above comment: Okay fascist, get the fuck off my timeline

    @lowqualityfacts Classy of you to try and hide their identity, at least. Good on you.

    @thoughtpunks My first time playing was AD&D 2e BUT my first exposure to RP was when I traded a friend some comics for some TMNT graphic novels and a copy of TMNT and Other Strangeness from Palladium games. After that, I picked up Ninjas & Superspies and Heroes Unlimited and read them cover-to-cover multiple times way before I ever played any D&D.
